Report region source error

Hi all,
I'm trying to display report ( SQL Query report ) the query is as follows:-
SELECT E.C001, E.C002, AE.C001, AE.C002
FROM APEX_COLLECTIONS COLLECTION_NAME = 'EXAMPLE' A
INNER JOIN
APEX_COLLECTIONS COLLECTION_NAME = 'ANOTHER_EXAMPLE' AE
ON
E.SEQ_ID = AE.SEQ_ID;
but it gives me generic column error ====> ORA-00933
Can anybody help me out
Thanks
Deep.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for quick response, but I didnt get your point what are you trying to say, can you show me with an example in this thread.
I was narrowing down the problem and hence was writting the query:-
SELECT E.C001, E.C002
FROM APEX_COLLECTIONS
WHERE COLLECTION_NAME = 'EXAMPLE' E
but the above query giving me the error, if I dont use an alisa name it doesnt gives me any error, so it means I cannot use alias name into collections is it?
Thanks
Deep

SQL report region source to call a pl/sql function using DB link

Hi - I have a pl/sql function fn_dbtype(id NUMBER) defined in database X. The pl/sql function executes couple DML statements and returns a string (a SELECT query). I am able to call this function using SQL Plus (Connected to Database X) as below and it works fine:
declare
vSQL VARCHAR2(100);
begin
vSQL := fn_dbtype(1);
end;
The DML operations completed fine and vSQL contains the "Select" query now.
In APEX:
I am trying to create a SQL report in APEX using SQL query(PL/SQL function returning a sql statement) option. I am trying to figure out what to put in the region source so that the output of the "Select" query is displayed in the report.
Moreover APEX is hosted in a different database instance. So I would need to call this pl/sql function using a DB Link.
Please let me know what I need to put in the region source to execute the pl/sql function which returns the "Select" query thereby displaying the query output in the report. Thanks.

How to retrieve report region source statement programmatically?

Hi all,
I have several report regions in an apex application each
of type "PL/SQL function body returning SQL query"
and of same structure like:
bq. declare \\ stmt varchar2(32767); \\ ... \\ begin \\ /* some stuff preparing sql query string */ \\ stmt := 'select' || ' a,b,c' || 'from table'; \\ return stmt; \\ end;
Now I need to retrieve the region source returned sql statement programmatically.
The region source is stored in apex view "apex_application_page_regions.region_source".
But what is the best way to retrieve the SQL statement value, by executing
the anonymous pl/sql block OR how does it work in apex internally?
An "execute immediate +region_source+ ... " approach does not work due to PLS-00372.
Any hints?
Regards,
Matthias

Dear Matthias,
an interesting problem you raise here. The solution is to create a function from the region source, call that function and then do something useful with the result.
Let's suppose your region source is :
declare v_text varchar2(100); begin return(''select * from emp''); end;
- put this text instead of the first declare
declare
v_statement varchar2(4000) := '
declare
function test return varchar2 is
- put this code behind the source:
begin
dbms_output.put_line(test);
end;';
begin
execute immediate v_statement;
end;
Now you have created a anonymous PL/SQL block that can be performed. The whole code looks like:
declare
v_statement varchar2(4000) := '
declare
function test return varchar2 is
begin return(''select * from emp''); end;
begin
dbms_output.put_line(test);
end;';
begin
execute immediate v_statement;
end;
Instead of the put_line you might set a package variable, so that you can use the result in another way,
good luck, DickDral

Make sure you're using the latest SP:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009038092009E/cr2008win_sp2.exe
Consider adding latest FP also:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100001024152010E/cr2008_fp24.zip
Make sure you are disposing of the report object once you are done with it and before you re-run it with new parameters (.close, .dispose).
Test without the combo box. Let the report prompt. Can you reproduce the behavior now? If not, try to supply the parameter values via a text box. Can you reproduce the issue now? E.g.; is it the combo box that is the issue, or the report?

SQL Query Too Large For Report Region

Oracle Friends:
I have a SQL query that is 24,000 characters long. APEX fails when I try to create a report using this query, probably because it is too long.
I get an "ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column" after I paste it and try to go to the next page.
Any ideas? I can't make my query any smaller without creating intermediate tables.
Any help would be most appreciated.
Regards,
Rich Locus

Hi,
If possible, try to reduce the no. of characters from your SQL query. Ex. use shorter aliases etc in your query. Also, as suggested above, create some views which can form a part of your query and then use those views in your main query to reduce the total no. of characters.
The report region source can take some limited no. of characters only. Exact figure is not known to me.
Try the above suggestion and see if this works or not.

How to find orientation of image displayed in a report region

Hello,
I have Apex 3.1 application showing an image in a report.
The images are held as files on the web server and filename and description held in a database table
I can use SQL to retrieve the data into report columns and then HTML expression to display the image as a fixed size as shown below. This works fine for landscape pictures but obviously distorts portrait ones.
I wanted to check the orientation of the image and adjust width and height if portrait. I was considering using javascript to get image.height and image.width but am not sure how to reference the column and feed back into the HTML expression.
Is this this the best approach and any help how to reference the column would be appreciated
Many thanks
Colin
The Report Region Source is -
select "PHOTOFILE"."FNAME" as "FNAME" ,
"PHOTOFILE"."ID" as "ID",
"PHOTOFILE"."DESCRIPTION" as "DESCRIPTION",
"PHOTOFILE"."FNAME" as "IMG2"
from "PHOTOFILE" "PHOTOFILE"
where id=:P4_IMAGE_IDColumn Attributes IMG2
Column Formatting
HTML Expression
<center> #DESCRIPTION# 
&P4_DESCRIPTION.
</center>
 
<img src="#IMG2#" width=600 height=400 >

This example may help you, although a bit different from what you want to achieve:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:212
The point was:
1. display image region should be fixed size (300px wide and 300px height)
2. if the image size is bigger than that, the region should expand automaticaly.

Report Region SQL Source

Hello all...
Im new to Application Express so my problems are quite fundamental. I am trying to create a filter system on a report region that alters the SQL depending which field is selected and what criteria is entered. How do I refer to the SQL? I sthere a system name for the region source sql or or can I refer to a column name in the SQL by useing a variable?
i.e. ... WHERE <varColName> = <varSearchCriteria>
Many Thanks,
Richie

I am trying to do the same thing, and I am not finding the answer either in the howtos or your demos (which are great). I tried to follow the instructions below, but I don't have a "Query Definition" tab, I have a Report Definition tab and it does not contain a Join Conditions page.
Add a Condition
To add a condition to the DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS report:
1. Under Regions, select Order Items as shown in Figure 4-6.
Figure 4-6 Order Items
Description of Figure 4-6 follows
Description of "Figure 4-6 Order Items"
2. Click the Query Definition tab.
3. Click Modify Join Conditions.
4. On the Modify Join Conditions page:
1. For the first Column, select DEMO_ORDER_ITEMS.ORDER_ID. Note that you may need to click Search to view available columns.
2. In the second Column field, replace the existing text with the following condition:
:P2_ORDER_ID
5. Click Apply Changes.
Here is the Source of my Report - I am getting this error: "Invalid PL/SQL expression condition: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error"
select
"IDENTIFIER",
"APPLICATIONIDENTIFIER",
"QUESTIONNUMBER",
"ANSWERTEXT1",
"ANSWERTEXT2",
"ANSWERTEXT3"
from "#OWNER#"."COMPANYPERSONNEL"
WHERE "APPLICATIONIDENTIFIER" = :F101_APPLICATIONIDENTIFIER
AND "QUESTIONNUMBER" = 1
Appreciate any help. Thanks.
Note: I tried TO_NUMBER(:F101_APPLICATIONIDENTIFIER) - same result
Data Type for APPLICATIONIDENTIFIER = NUMBER(10)
Data Type for QUESTIONNUMBER = NUMBER(2)

Version 3.1 fault - ORA-06502 error when creating SQL Report Region/Page

I usually perfect my query in SQL*PLUS before I create a new report region.
Consequently, I copy the code into the region wizard to create the new page. However, since we have upgraded to Version 3.1, virtually every report I have tried to create has created the following error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
It would appear that a maximum of 960 characters can be used to create the region/page. Perversely, once the page/region has been created, I can then edit the source and include as much code as I want (so far I've not run up against a limit)
As it's just annoying, but not stopping me doing what I wanted to do, I've not got around to mentioning this error previously, but it occurred to me that I should (so I am!)
David

Hi David,
Thank you for reporting this. Unfortunately, this was a regression introduced in Application Express 3.1. The workaround is to edit the region, as you suggested. This has been filed as Bug 6956070 and will be corrected in the forthcoming Application Express 3.1.1 patch set.

Error in editing a report region

Error while creating a new report data source in Sharepoint Document library

I installed SSRS(sql server 2012 SP1) in my sharepoint 2013 farm(single server installation).
I have installed SSRS addin for report also.
I created a document library and included the report data source content type, report builder report and report builder model content types. On click of any of these content types i get the below error.
"new Document requires a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation-compatible application and web browser. To add document to document library, click on the 'Upload' button."
I am using windows 7 64-bit operation system with Google chrome and IE 8 64 bit.
Any help would be appreciated.

Rakesh, is this an SSRS question?
This doesn't look like Power View.

Getting 401 error while creating a Report Data Source with MOSS 2010 Foundation

I have setup SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services with SharePoint 2010 Foundation in SharePoint integrated mode. SharePoint Foundation is in machine 1 whereas SQL Server 2008 R2 and SSRS Report Server are in machine 2. While configuring Reporting
Services - Sharepoint integration, I have used Authentication Mode as "Windows Authentication" (I need to use Kerberos).
My objective is to setup a Data Connection Library, a Report Model Library, and a Reports Library so that I can upload a Report Data Source, some SMDLs, and a few Reports onto their respective libraries.
While creating the top level site, "Business Intelligence Center" was not available for template selection since SharePoint Foundation is being used. I therefore selected "Blank Site" as the template.
While creating a SharePoint Site under the top level site, for template selection I again had to select "Blank Site".
I then proceeded to create a library for the data connection. Towards this, I created a new document library and selected "Basic page" as the document template. I then went to Library Settings for this newly created library and clicked on
Advanced Settings. In the Advanced Settings page, for "Allow management of content types?" I selected "Yes". Then I clicked on "Add from existing content types" and selected "Report Data Source". I deleted the existing
"Document" content type for this library.
Now I wanted to created a Data Connection in the above Data Connection library. For this when I clicked on "New Document" under "Documents" of "Library Tools" and selected "Report Data Source", I got the error "The
request failed with HTTP status
401: Unauthorized.".
Can anybody tell me why I am getting this error?
Note: I have created the site and the library using SharePoint Admin account.

Hi,
Thank you for your detailed description. According to the description, I noticed that the report server was not part of the
SharePoint farm. Add the report server to the
SharePoint farm and see how it works.
To join a report server to a SharePoint farm, the report server must be installed on a computer that has an instance of a SharePoint product or technology. You can install the report server before or after installing the SharePoint product
or technology instance.
More information, see

If you are using Claims Auth then this is a known limitation. Auto refresh only works under Classic Auth.
I trust that answers your question...
